There are no material objects in the traditional sense. Taking contemporary physics seriously leads to a metaphysical view on which information-theoretic structures like patterns are the fundamental objects in our ontology. Ordinary objects like tables and chairs are just very stable patterns.
Definitely. Comrades may be resistant, but process philosophy is correct and dialectical materialism is of it. Nothing is the same from one moment to the next.
